How to make first gen brakes even better?

hi, just bought an ‘01 prerunner. Previous owner did the tundra brake upgrades and the truck still feels like I could do with snappier braking. Anything else I can do to upgrade the brakes on this thing? Previous owner mentioned I should look into upgrading the master cylinder?

It’s got those metal front bumpers and some skid plates and 35 inch tires. So I know it’s not gonna brake like a Ferrari but I was wondering if y’all can help me think of ways based on what you did to make this truck brake a lot faster

 

Stainless steel brake lines front and reat big difference and new brake fluid and better brake pads like EBC or Hawks
, slotted rotors

 

Thanks for the quick reply. Do you think these upgrades will help it stop on a dime? Cuz that’s what I’m hoping to get. Also what can I expect to pay for an upgrade to steel lines and new pads? Gonna have someone else do it haha

 

I didn't go with the Tundra upgrade,
But with the stock setup I did these 3 things and there was a huge difference.
My truck stops on a dime but its not a heavy truck

Stainless steel lines front and rear from LC 125 or so
EBC pads green stuff 7000 125.00
Drilled slotted high carbon rotors 150.00

Dont know about installing prices

 

If you do these on top of the tundra uograde I would imagine a big difference

 

Rear disc conversion is also an option.

Are those the best brake lines for me? Since I have the tundra brake upgrade I assume that’s the one. If you can think of a better on please let me know/

I’m looking to get another 150K miles out of this thing so I’m wanting to cross all T’s.

 

No ones mentioned a master cylinder upgrade. I assume this doesn’t make a big difference?

 

How does this look to meet all this?

This with the LCE stainless steel lines?

 

I don’t know anything about those pads,
As long as rotors are high carbon that’s good

 

You looking for more assist? Can you lock up the brakes/abs? If so, ...
If you are towing heavier loads then the Tundra larger rotors gives more thermal mass, less fade.

 

Does anyone know what the Tundra brake upgrade adds in weight?

 

I’m not sure. I just bought the truck and I don’t know, although the previous owner says he could lock it up when he brakes so I guess that’s a yes? Looking to see if I can add even more stopping power though. Doing the SS brake lines but any other ideas would be awesome.
